Dental Technology

At Infinity Dental Wellness, we use the following technology:

Digital X-rays in Fort Lee, NJ & Surrounding Area

Digital X-rays allow our dental team to examine your mouth and diagnose and treat dental problems. They are also quicker and more comfortable than film radiography and can reduce radiation by up to 90% while providing a close-to-immediate readout.

Digital X-rays are just one of the advanced diagnostic tools we use to provide patients with the best possible dental outcomes. Digital radiography has changed the way we take dental X-rays, making the process faster, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever. Digital X-rays use a low-radiation digital sensor to take images of your teeth. Traditional X-rays, on the other hand, use much more radiation and conventional film, which requires chemicals and time to develop the images. We can view digital X-rays instantly on monitors right in our treatment room so the dentist can provide you with an efficient and accurate diagnosis. Digital radiography helps us identify and diagnose several types of dental problems, including:

  • null
    Decay between teeth
  • null
    Developmental abnormalities
  • null
    Improper tooth root positioning
  • null
    Cysts and abscesses
  • null
    Fractures in existing fillings
  • null
    Tumors
  • null
    Infection in the tooth nerves
  • null
    Bone loss

Intraoral Cameras in Fort Lee, NJ & Surrounding Area

Our dentists and team can examine your entire mouth with ease using an intraoral camera. Along with treatment rooms that feature wall-mounted monitors to easily view enlarged images of specific areas of the mouth, this technology helps us better understand your oral health needs and treatment options.

An intraoral camera is a tool that allows us to get a closer look at different parts of your teeth, gums, and mouth. The small, pen-shaped device takes high-quality digital photos of your teeth and gums, as well as other areas of your mouth, when needed. Since the intraoral camera is so small and easily maneuverable, we can use it to see angles in your mouth that are otherwise difficult to view. We also use the intraoral camera to better evaluate your oral health and diagnose dental problems like tooth decay, periodontal disease, tooth damage, and cracked or chipped teeth. The intraoral camera also helps us during follow-up appointments after a treatment has been completed.

Not only does our team get a better view of your smile, but the images the intraoral camera produces also allow patients to gain a better understanding of their oral health and dental treatments. We can also share these digital pictures with other dentists and specialists and submit them to dental insurance companies when required.

TRIOS wireless intraoral scanner

Hygienic for patient health, small and light for patient comfort, the Trios 5 intraoral scanner makes taking digital impressions a breeze. High-definition 3D images capture every detail to create perfectly accurate, custom-fitted clear aligners, crowns, veneers, dental implants, and more.

Sterilization System & Infection Control in Fort Lee, NJ & Surrounding Area

To ensure the safety of our patients, we use the latest sterilization and infection control systems, including a state-of-the-art water purification system that combines sterilization with distilled water. We are proud that our office exceeds OSHA and CDC guidelines for sterilization.

Infinity Dental Wellness follows the extensive infection control recommendations outlined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In fact, we go above and beyond many of these requirements because of our commitment to protecting the health and safety of our patients and our team.

We follow infection control and safety measures, such as:

  • null
    Providing eye protection for patients and team members
  • null
    Using disinfectant hand soap
  • null
    Wearing gloves and face masks
  • null
    Chemical disinfection of countertops and surfaces
  • null
    Sterilization of all equipment before every use

In addition, our dental team sterilizes all reusable equipment after each use, including handpieces. We use an autoclave — a device that kills bacteria and viruses with steam, heat, and pressure. When possible, we also use disposable materials and tools to eliminate the risk of cross-contamination, which can occur when these items are reused.

Your health and comfort are our top priorities. You can be confident that we have taken all the necessary steps to protect you and your family while in our care.

Dexis CariVu

Tooth decay can’t hide from the DEXIS CariVu portable caries detection device. Patented transillumination technology helps our dentists detect even the tiniest cavities and cracks, which can be difficult to see with digital X-ray images alone. CariVu uses non-ionizing radiation, making it safe for everyone, including children, pregnant women, and patients who prefer to avoid X-rays.

How it Works

The handheld device uses near-infrared light to make healthy enamel appear transparent. Unhealthy or damaged enamel absorbs the light and appears dark, in stark contrast. Your dentist can essentially see through your tooth and visualize the full extent of decay and other damage.

CariVu helps us detect tooth decay at the earliest stages, allowing your dentist to intervene quickly and keep more of the strong, healthy tooth structure during treatment. For larger cavities, CariVu reveals the extent of the damage before treatment begins, allowing for better planning and more successful outcomes.
